SECTION CUT

 

Description: This function creates a cross section which may be saved as a geometric line entity.

 

Usage:

  1.   DSI prompts:

>  CREATE LOCAL COORDINATES

DSI prompts the user to create a local coordinate system.  The user also has the option to select the global coordinate system.  (Refer to Local Coordinate System, Section 2.16, for a thorough explanation of this procedure.)

 

2.   Once the desired coordinate system has been defined, DSI prompts:

>  ENTER PLANE TO CUT SURFACE (UV, VW, UW)

?  UV PLANE

   VW PLANE

   UW PLANE
